Homework 7 Emily Delavega Q7.1. Draw a scatterplot of the rkt+ allele frequencies in the Aspidocelis tigris populations over 10 generations. Q7.2. Which migration model is being followed and how do you know this? The genetic model being observed is consistent with an "Infinite model" due to the presence of five distinct elevation points, suggesting separate or distinct populations. The assumption is that there is ongoing migration occurring among all five elevation points, facilitating genetic exchange between these distinct populations. Q7.3. Draw a scatterplot of the dfh+ allele frequencies in the Tangara viridicollis populations over 10 generations.

4. Q7.4. Which migration model is being followed and how do you know this? The migration model that appears to be followed is the One-Island model. This conclusion is based on the observation that the allele frequencies in the island population converge towards the allele frequencies in the mainland population, ultimately reaching an equilibrium point. 5. Q7.5. Which organisms (western whiptails or the silver-backed tanagers) have a faster rate of migration? How do you know this? The silver-backed tanagers exhibit a faster rate of migration compared to the western whiptails. This assessment is made based on the notable differences in the changes of allele frequencies within the populations. The silver-backed tanagers experience greater shifts in allele frequencies over time, indicating a more rapid migration process.
